Dassault Falcon 10x vs Gulfstream G500 vs Gulfstream G600

The Dassault Falcon 10X sits in the ultra-long-range, large-cabin category, positioned above both Gulfstreams in size and mission profile. It is designed for roughly 7,500 nautical miles of range, enabling very long nonstop intercontinental flights. Typical configurations generally target about 8 to 16 passengers, with maximum layouts higher depending on operator choices. The Gulfstream G600 is also an ultra-long-range large-cabin jet, but slightly below the 10X in advertised reach. It offers about 6,600 nautical miles of range and is commonly configured for around 10 to 16 passengers, balancing long-range capability with high-speed cruise and a spacious cabin. The Gulfstream G500 is a long-range large-cabin aircraft positioned below the G600. Its range is about 5,300 nautical miles, suitable for transcontinental and many transatlantic missions, and it typically carries roughly 8 to 14 passengers in executive layouts. Overall, the 10X leads on range and cabin scale, the G600 follows as a strong ultra-long-range option, and the G500 prioritizes slightly shorter long-range missions with similar cabin comfort.
